'r Tho following is the context of the Act amending tho Lien Law : " ; Section 1. That from and after the passage of this Act the landlord shall have a lien upon the crops of hie tenant for his rent in preference to all other liens. That laborers who assist in making any crop shall have a lien therein V <fti to the extent of the amount due thetn for such labor next in priority to .k"- the landlora, and as between snch la. v horers there shall be no preference. ?V? . - That all other liens for agricultural supplies shall be paid next after the satis fV:v- faction of the hens of the landlord and 'the laborers, and shall rnnk in other re^ : spects as they do now under existing 0 laws. ' * Sec. 2. That no writing or recording ,v> shall be necessary to create the Mens of the landlord, but such liens shall exist from the date of the contract, whether x. the game be in writing or verbal. Sec. 3. That all Acts and parts .of Acta inconsistent wuh or supplied by this Act be, and the same are hereby re'; pealed. It is true that there was a demand on v. the part of some for the repeal of the f ; lien law. Whether or not it would sr have been wise ^to repeal that law it does not now need to discuss. The last Legislature did not repeal it. On the contrary they tacked on to it an amendment that we do not hesitate to . say savors strongly of a return to feudalism in that it puts the poor renter 118. and laborer in the power of the landlord. There are numbers of men, ?v; White men, who do not own land and who are compelled to rent. To such s the above amendment is a cruel blow. It puts them absolutely in the power pv >. and control of the landlord. For no v merchant is going to advance to them upon the security of a lien, whilst the landlord holds this almost unlimited jj&I power over them. We recall that it P&i? was said privately in Columbia during the session that this Act was intended y; to make the lien law odious so that its - repeal might be the more easily ascomp\ plished hereafter. 'If this be true it Pgr, was a weakness on the part of the Log?&i.Y> .'7 islature, which did not dare to cope with H'.; the question. That the amendment gfrv was not made in the interest of the . poor and laboring man is shown by the & Act itself. After providing that laborore who assist in making the crop shall Kg'j: have .a lien next in priorify to that of the landlord, section 2, provides 4,that fi|i no writing or recording shull be necessary to create the liens of the hind; P7 ' lordIt will be observed that it was not siid that that the lien of the laborer need ,not bo recorded or written. On the contrary it would appear that r- . provision was purposely omitted. So that under the guise of protecting the laborer, he really under this Act stands An nrv . A 1. ~?*?- ? v.. nu ucivci gll/UUU lllrtll OLIHfrs n IIOSV liens are written and recorded. Above all the Act throws open the door to fraud. At the end of the year by collusion and connivance between a dishonest laborer and his landlord the ; v ' * 4 j whole of the crop may bo gathered up j and protected from honest creditors by! ; claim of a fictitious verbal lien of the landlord. Py '-'i Upon the whole it seems to us the amendment is unwise and pernicious.! ? If the experience of the country proves Vl .that the lien law has censed to be useful then let it be repealed in full. Amendf in cits in the nature of that above set forth cannot be of any avail. FARMS FOR THE CONVICTS. I The question of the proper euro of Jthe convicts has been one of growing p/f . importance for several years. The sysBJtem of leasing them has its drawbacks. There is no question that under it, great jK, .cruelties have been practiced. The apace within the Penitentiary was too small for their comfortable and healthful | j. keeping. Moreover the great number fV"' p( them within the building could not I o worked to advantage, and the expense of the institution thr? atoned to "become |v- p heavy burden upon tlio already heavily burdonen taxpayers of the Ktate. { .

To the Editor of tlm Xtwtt and Courier: "A few days ago you copied from the New York iSitn an Abbeville letter ?K-? I ,.C ?!,? 1111:11 Milieu HUM. lilt; lilM U1V ?M MIU Confederate Cabinet took place :it Mr. Burt's house in that village. Mr. Thomas C. i'errin, like Mr. Burl, is dead . now, but he told me th:?t it was in a room in his house, si nee burned to the ground, that that last meeting of the Cabinet took place, and 1 remember being impressed wfth this coincidence, that as South Carolina was the first State to secede, so Mr. I'errin, (being in the Secession Convention, from Abbeville.) was the first man who signed the first Secession Ordinance, and now in his house took place the last act of the Confederate Oovernment. Mr. I'errin gave a different account oT the disposal of the Confederate seal from that given by the Sun's correspondent. Mr. Benjamin consulted Mr. Benin on that point and proposed the use of tire. Mr. I'errin told mo he suggested depositing it iu the bosom of the Savannah when they should cross over it. I communirnted this statement to 3*011 some years t?go and you published it. when immediately there appeared another statement, to the effect that some gentlemen in -Abbeville, whose name I cannot recall, has the Confederate seal now in his possession." A. The above article which wo find in the JVc/r.v and (,'oiirier induced us to try to lind out something about the matter. For this purpose wo called upon Judges McGowan and Cothran, and after some solicitation obtained their viiws. Judge McGowan said : All I know about the last meeting of tin* Confederate Cabinet in Abbeville, is this : About the first of Mny 1805, the President and most of the Cabinet arrived at Abbe vine on tneir way to the west, po^stnty over the Mississippi river, when ii was expected the war would lie still carried 011. Mrs. Davis hud boon staying fulsome time previous, with Mrs. l>urt, whom she had kno.vn in Washington. Mr. Davis therefore, and I think some of the Cabinet, went to the house of Mr. Burt. Mr. Benjamin, Mallory and others, went to the houses of Judge Wardlaw and Col. T. C. IVrrin, which were in the immediate vicinity. The three houses were in a stone's throw of each other. The party staid in Abbeville several days, and during that time were almost constantly with each other. 1 lived in a different part of the town, but called several times to see the President, and always found him with some of the other gent lemon at the house of Mr. Burt, (now Norwood's.) I have no personal knowledge of any formal Cabinet meeting, hut I have no doubt they had such, probably more than otfc', and perhaps at both the houses of Mr. Hurt and Col. l'errin. where niOit ?>f the gentlemen were staying. J well remember calling at the house of Mr. Hurt, to see the President. It was about f) o'clock, at night, and the President came into tha room with a pistol bnc'vled around him, saying, a>< he entered, that, "it was thr first time since the commencement of the war, that he had thought it necessary to provide for his personal safety." Intelligence had j just reached them, thai a bodv of caval- i ry under une Gen oral Brown of the federal army was trying to cut off the party from going west, nnd possibly were then at Anderson C. H.. or in hasty march towards the Savannah river for that purpose. This intelligence and the small escort which accompanied them, had induced the conclusion that the party should iinncdiately re-cominence their westward journey. Tliey left that ni/rht, 1 think abant 10 o'clock. I uever heard anything about the Confederate seal. Did' not know that it was in the party. There were wagons with them, which it was said, were loaded i with bullion belonging to the banks in j Richmond and probahly the Confoder- i ate Government. The runinr nftnr- I wards syas, that at the river or at some point beyond, those wagons were rni?lt*<l, but as to the truth of this rumor, I never know. Judge Cothran said : - I had just returned home from the army, when Mr. Hnvis and his party arrive.at Abbeville. My family was sick, and my business in inuch confusion, so that I have no great Knowledge of what occurred here. I know that the President' and some of the members of the Cabinet stopped at Mr. Hurt's, where Mrs. Norwood now lives. Several members of the Cabinet and of the president's stalf were at Col. T. C. Perrin's and I do not know if the President was ever there. My impassion :sth#t tho'President was in feeble hi'i 1 h andthey went to him. I never heard anything of tho seal and did not knoiv it was along. From all this we aro inclined to think that the last Cabinet meeting wus held at Mr. Hurt's. If uny of our readers know anything of thbse matters we would be glad to publish it. Bargains, Bargains.

[From the Abbeville Press anil Manner.] To show that we constituents are not ingrateful to our lawmakers for their fforts at rectitude, is the object of this >iece. The present Legislature has imrnoralized itself, l>y tne pure, high toned, lisinterestcd laws il has m*de. laws hat, lor impartiality and fairness to all Masses, havu not been excelled, even by he 1'ilaek Code. His Satanic Majesty lever conceived such ideas of lair dealng between man and man as these laws :outain. The honesty, of these law.-, n wrapped in more plies and shields oi irotect.ou and safety, than were ev< r joinpilett in law before, and is as far beyond comprehension as the Last is from the West, but still it is there ;rand, incomprehensible and uneomoatibie. It can only be seen through the uye of faith, and to see it clearly requires faith a little larger than ;i inus- j Lard seed. The Priority Lien Law caps the climax in honesty and fairness to all parties uoncernod, of anything ever achieved in legislation. It has more contrivances in lower words, to make people act honestly mill uprightly then any law on the Statute hooks from M<<s?s of Egypt to Moses of South Carolina. It stands like a wind mill to catch every dishonest breeze that posses through the country to purify ami utilize the.n. It removes evury temptation to commit fraud, as it would be almost impossible to do so under it. A person has only to tell the plain truth about his contracts for labor and rents to sweep all. This almost divine law makes a contract for rent or labor as pure as virginity itself and not to be gazed on by the im modest public. It is only to be brought in to save the proceeds of the farm from the revenous grasp of the dishonest merchant. There can be no motive or inducemeutto use fales witnesses, or to make misstatements, as all that is necessary to make all things as straight as tisli hooks, is to get your witnesses all ready the day before settlements is made, and in their presence make contracts for rent and labor, or either, to cover the value of the entire crou, and you are safe. To make it all the more plausible, you could state, in their presence, that you had made this contract on the first d:iy ol .January, soon in the morning, so there could be no possible hope of getting ahead of you in uny particular. The honesty of this law is so deep-seated that vou could not reach it with a ten foot cork screw, it is so clear that you can sec through'it, is so elastic ns to lit any emergency, it is capable ot making a virtue of every vice in the catalogue, so straight that its ends and sides meet, so upright that it points in all directions, it is so lair as to give all' more than tlu'ir rights, it is moiv universal than universality, it saves all. it purities rottenness and removes every evil taint, its beauties and perfections commend it to all fainuinded people. Legislators that could construct such a bright-eyed jewel of honesty and fair play should hold their seats for life. There could not be found another set of men in the State, outside of the penitentiary. that have such a sense of what is right and proper, and the next most becoming thing they can do is to pass nn Art making thcmselves life-members? i mean of ?In; Legislature. By u htj>sun pen me, 1 was made to say penitentiary where I should have said Legislature, so 1 crave the pardon of the ileiuen of either institution llu>t may take oli'ence at the mistake.
